Inuits
The Inuits of Shishmaref, Alaska, have a tiny carbon footprint as they still live a traditional hunter gatherer lifestyle. As such they are least responsible for climate change, but are being hugely affected by it. The problem is twofold. The animals that they depend on for survival are shifting range as the Arctic warms up rapidly, making them harder to hunt. Also the Island of Shishmaref is being rapidly eroded by storms as sea ice that once used to protect the island is now absent in early winter.
